You Plan The Mission’s Future Every Day. This Afternoon Is For Yours.

“Executive compensation and the retirement it has to fund. Charitable giving, yours and your donors’. The estate plan that protects both. Three blocks, three case studies, three decisions — worked through in a room small enough for real questions.”

One Afternoon. Three Blocks.
Three Decisions Every Nonprofit Executive Faces.

Each workshop runs three hours in a host nonprofit’s conference room, then moves into an informal reception. Every block pairs a short teaching segment with a case study you work through in your workbook.

Purpose
Block 01

Compensation & Retirement

Split-dollar, 457(f), and deferred compensation — the structures that decide whether an executive’s pay package actually funds the retirement it was meant to.

Focus Your compensation and retirement
Format Teaching segment + case study

Covered in every workshop, with its own case study.

Legacy
Block 02

Charitable Giving

Charitable remainder trusts, gift annuities, donor-advised funds, and insurance-based wealth replacement — for your own giving and for the donors your organization depends on.

Focus Your giving and your donors’
Format Teaching segment + case study

Covered in every workshop, with its own case study.

Protection
Block 03

Estate & Wealth Transfer

Irrevocable life insurance trusts, estate equalization, and beneficiary-designation reviews — the funding side of an estate plan, so it protects the family and the causes it was written for.

Focus The plan that protects both
Format Teaching segment + case study

Covered in every workshop, with its own case study.

Built For Nonprofit Executives
And The Organizations They Lead.

Invitations go to the senior leaders of nonprofit organizations.

Executive Directors & CEOs

Your compensation package, your retirement, and your own giving — planned with the same care you give the organization’s future.

Finance & Operations Leaders

CFOs and COOs who shape the benefits package and plan for their own families at the same time.

Development Leaders

Chief development officers and major-gift leaders who steward the donors your mission depends on.

Host Organizations

Nonprofits that open their conference room to a workshop and invite their own leadership and peers.

The Questions We Hear Most.

Who Can Attend?

Each workshop is by invitation and limited to 15 nonprofit executives, so every attendee gets time for their own questions.

Where And When Are The Workshops Held?

Workshops are planned for Park City, Utah and Santa Barbara, California, hosted in a nonprofit’s own conference room. Dates are set with each host organization and shared with invitees directly.

How Long Is A Workshop?

Three hours of working session covering all three blocks, followed by an informal reception.

Is This A Sales Pitch For Insurance?

No. This is an educational workshop built around strategy. You will learn what’s possible with insurance-funded planning, and you decide what, if anything, fits your situation.
